All these people are not helpless. But just the family ____84____ them. There is an old man here. His children took him for a ride one day, pushed him out of the car, let him walk and wander (徘徊) by himself. He couldn’t find his way home. His children try to ____85____ all that he has. They are trying to make him sign papers and things like those. There is nothing wrong with him.
